John Henderson Obituary

John Milton Henderson, also known as "Lambchop", left us unexpectedly to join Jesus in Heaven on December 30, 2024.

John was born in Houston, Texas at Jeff Davis Hospital on October 10, 1963 to Mary and Frank Henderson. He was a longtime resident of Montgomery, Texas and graduated from Montgomery High School. His zest for life and adventure saw him visit many countries and numerous places and states in the U.S. His laid-back charm and wit ensured that he never met a stranger that he couldn't share a laugh with always starting a conversation with a "Hey, how we doin'" and a big smile.

John worked hard all of his life providing for his family working as a dairyman, cowboy, feedstore employee, and finally as an Operations Manager for a water bottling facility. John's avid interests included motorcycles, Jeeps and Subarus, listening to a wide variety of music, shopping, and being out in nature primarily fishing, hiking, and camping.

John met the love of his life, Theresa, in August 2008 and they later married in 2018. Together they traveled and made many happy memories - which included their dogs Bonnie and then later, Annie.

John leaves behind his beloved wife Theresa; his stepfather Francis Krogmann; his children, Ashley and husband Jay Nappier, Courtney and husband Jose Guerrero, Jacob and wife Rachel, and Daniel and partner Kate; siblings Carol (Krogmann) and Richard Craven, Frankie (Henderson) Shaw, Rosemary (Krogmann) Deleon and Tina Krogmann Goodman; numerous grand-children, nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Levi, and his ever-faithful dog Bonnie.

A visitation will be held from 5:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. on Wednesday, January 8, at Eickenhorst Funeral Home located at 12412 FM 2854 Road, Conroe, TX 77304. For those interested, a rosary will be recited for John at 5:30pm. Funeral service will be held at 11:00 A.M. on Thursday, January 9, at Christ the Redeemer Catholic Church, located at 11507 Huffmeister Road, Houston, Texas 77065, travel to the place of internment with graveside service at 2:00 P.M. in Bethel Cemetery 14845 Bethel Road, Montgomery, TX 77356. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Friends of County Pets, which funds the Canino Animal Shelter where Bonnie was rescued.

His wings were ready, but our hearts weren't.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
